Harrah’s Laughlin is a casino and hotel that sits on the banks of the Colorado River in the southern tip of the US state of Nevada. It is one of many such casinos that Harrah’s operates in the United States. On April 28, 2002, the casino was witness to a deadly fight among rival motorcycle gangs. In the early hours of the morning, bikers from Hell’s Angels and Mongols stormed into the casino, and in a severe breach of casino etiquette began battling with guns and knives across the game floor.
